RUBY M. YARBOROUGH, Plaintiff, v. COMMISSIONER OF SOCIAL SECURITY ADMINISTRATION, Defendant.
ORDER ADOPTING REPORT AND RECOMMENDATION (ECF NO. 24)
TERRENCE G. BERG UNITED STATES DISTRICT JUDGE
This matter is before the Court on Magistrate Judge David R. Grand's January 18, 2022 Report and Recommendation (ECF No. 1246), recommending that the Plaintiff's Motion for Summary Judgment (ECF No. 20) be granted, the Defendant's Motion (ECF No. 22) be denied, and the ALJ's decision remanded for further proceedings.
The Court has reviewed the Magistrate Judge's Report and Recommendation and finds that it is well-reasoned and supported by the applicable law. The law provides that either party may serve and file written objections “[w]ithin fourteen days after being served with a copy” of the report and recommendation. 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1). The district court will make a “de novo determination of those portions of the report . . . to which objection is made.” Id. Where, as here, neither party objects to the report, the district court is not obligated to independently review the record. See Thomas v. Arn, 474 U.S. 140, 149-52 (1985). The Court will, therefore, accept the Magistrate Judge's Report and Recommendation of January 18, 2022, as this Court's findings of fact and conclusions of law.
Accordingly, it is hereby ORDERED that Magistrate Judge Grand's Report and Recommendation of January 18, 2022 (ECF No. 24) is ACCEPTED and ADOPTED. It is FURTHER ORDERED that the case is REMANDED for further proceedings consistent with the Report and Recommendation.
SO ORDERED
